I've finished several cupcakes and two mini cupcakes. I gave away my prototype and my first "official" one--the service guy at the car dealership saw it and thought it was adorable, so I gave it to him. Why a 50+ year old man needs a girly knitted cupcake is none of my business, I suppose. :)
I'm kind of in a knitting rut since I've knit all the full-size cakes in Debbie Bliss cotton angora. I love the yarn and it works really well for the project, but I feel guilty that my sweets are all uniform. Where's the flair? I guess that will have to come later since I need to finish up my six-pack and minis before getting too creative. A certain girl has a pink Disney Princess toy oven. I am SO JEALOUS! It's very cute. And PINK!!!! Anyway, she needs to have girly cakes to go in her awesome oven, so this elf needs to get baking.
That girl bakes her heart out every day. Those cupcakes get "baked" and "eaten" at least once a day.
ReplyDeleteI have some other knitty type ideas that I could commission you for if you get cupcaked out :P
Bring on the ideas! I haven't forgotten about the pants--I just too intimidated to consider them. :)
ReplyDeleteYou of all people have no reason to be intimidated. :)
ReplyDeleteYou have done more "scary" stuff like cables and fingerless gloves! I can knit pants, but to have them with a monster or critter design would require a pattern showing the color/stitches.
